These labor camps were originally organized as places where ablebodied men and women could be put to work by their German masters. But the German sadists did not get enough enjoyment out of these labor camps. and pretty soon these camps. too. were turned into gruesome death chambers where their victims were tortured until death came as a relief. In the city of Lvov. which had a large Jewish population. amounting to about 100.000 or more. of the Jews who were not deported to Germany some 6.000 were murdered outright. The others were scattered throughout Germany and placed in labor camps. with the usual result. In the city of Vilna. which also had a population of 100.000 Jews. only 170 Jews survived.
